-About Alicia-

Alicia is a registered psychologist with over 24 years of experience in private practice. Her journey began in the fascinating field of forensics, where she gained invaluable assessment skills and was exposed to a wide range of mental health issues.

However,her true passion lies in family systems, attachment and the ecosystem of relationships. She has dedicated her career to understanding and working with the intricate dynamics of families and relationships. To deepen her knowledge and skills, she have undergone extensive training in couples therapy, including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method. One approach that has truly captivated her is Stan Tatkin's PACT therapy, which centers around the concept of secure attachment.

In addition to being a psychologist, she is also a life coach, a PACT coach, and a relationship coach. These roles allow her to support individuals and couples in creating meaningful and fulfilling lives and nurturing healthy connections. She is also the clinical director of Core Elements Counselling and has supervised many students and provisional psychologists as well as taught at both college and University campuses. 

On a personal note, she is happily married, celebrating over 20 years of partnership. Together, with her spouse raising two incredible teenagers, which has provided a unique understanding of the challenges and joys of navigating family life.

Outside of my professional life, she is a lover of dark chocolate, an advocate for all animals, and finds solace in the beauty of nature.
